Like fingerprints, no two hands are the same. 

Everybody knows their shoe size, but how many of us actually know what gloves will fit, or how to measure up? 

To ascertain your glove size, just two measurements are required. (Always measure your dominant hand, the hand you write with. And always measure in inches) First, measure around the widest part of your hand excluding your thumb. Then measure from the top of your middle finger to the bottom of your palm. Whichever is the larger of these two measurements, in inches, is your glove size.

Some manufacturers may indicate glove sizes by number and others by letter for Small, Medium, Large and so forth.

At Paula Rowan we always use traditional Italian glove sizing.
